Soldier's Secret Child
It's also a book in the Silhouette Romantic Suspense series. I learned about these when I worked at Walden Books -- they're on the shelf for a month, and then replaced with next month's adventure. Whenever the store ran "buy two, get the third free" specials, women would by them by the crate full (literally).
They're small -- slightly larger than my hand -- and short. In the case of this series, different authors take a crack at the story line from novel to novel (January's book is about another character's brother).

TJ's in a bit of trouble, and the suspense rolls from there. There's lots of "this boy needs a man," "tight jeans," and women pregnant with other guys' babies falling in love and marrying not-the-fathers, but it's cleanly written (if a tad descriptive) and a perfect beach chair companion. I finished it quickly, too -- though I did that with the last three books between time in airports, on planes and sitting on the beach.
For the situation? It worked. Who wants taxing material while browning (or burning -- ouch, I need some aloe).
